Abstract
In recent times, agriculturally important plants face increasing challenges in maintaining productivity, disease control, and welfare of farmers with changing climatic conditions. To accomplish this, the generation and analysis of large volumes of data, especially in the emerging “OMICS” areas of genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics, is imperative for decision-making over large volumes of data with respect to various crops. Analysis of this large amount of diverged data needs specific tools and techniques. There are various tools and techniques available for the analysis of such data. In this chapter, a detailed discussion on omics data analysis related tools and techniques have been made. This chapter provides a single platform to help the various researchers working in different domains of omics research for analyzing the data.
